Does the links which are generated should be relevant or the links can be taken from any site with good trust flow or domain authority.



In context, machine-driven relevancy to a page of your website can be pretty much anything.

Brett Tabke use to use something like this - 6 degree of separation covers a lot of ground e.g. trees is to leaves to fall foliage is to seasons is to winter is to tires is to rubber and back to trees.

Matt Cutts also noted this a little differently. This post discusses content (specifically) but links merely extend content elsewhere: [stonetemple.com...]

Trust Flow, as calculated by Moz (starting with a seed set of trusted sites), was shown by researchers many years ago to be a badly flawed algorithm. Because of those serious flaws, the Trust Flow algorithm was never used by any search engine. Frankly I'm surprised the Mozzers were unaware of the flaws in Trust Flow and decided to produce a Trust Flow metric based on a discredited algorithm anyway.

Relevance is important. But there are other factors that are just as important, such as the quality of the backlinks of the sites from which you are receiving links from and the relevance of those links. It's not enough to obtain relevant links.
